Across the main road from the samurai houses and marked by a slightly dented, red double-decker bus, this teahouse serves award-winning English-style teas from ¥540. The Yumefuki loose tea, made with Chiran leaves, has repeatedly won Britain's Great Taste Award. Its veddy British shoppe sells teas, snacks and decidedly un-Japanese tea ware.
Behind the tea room, the Anglo-Satsuma Museum (admission ¥350) chronicles the Anglo-Satsuma War of 1862, which started when British visitors refused to bow to a samurai of the local Shimazu clan. It's a collection of newspaper accounts, photos and memorabilia of the times, though for most of it it'll be useful to have a Japanese speaker on hand; there's little English signage. Exhibits of more recent times, encompassing Harry Potter and Wills and Kate, feel like a love letter to modern Britain.
